Puppy Classes

Bringing home a new puppy can be a very rewarding time in your life, but it also can present some unexpected challenges. Gahanna Animal Hospital can guide you through the ins and outs of puppy parenthood. The four-week course will lay down the foundation of training for you and your puppy to grow together. Your instructor will focus on the importance of building a well-balanced relationship with your new family member.

The cost for our four-week training course is $85.00 This amount includes a Mother’s Helper training lead and training manual. All members of the family are encouraged to come to class –especially children. Properly integrating a puppy into the family is the key to a successful future. We start the training process when puppies are 7 weeks old. Puppies do most of their learning and develop life-long behaviors between the ages of 7-12 weeks. The puppies must be current on the appropriate vaccines for their age. Required vaccines are Distemper combo and Bordetella. Rabies vaccinations are given at 16 weeks of age.
